“Monica and Christopher were awesome. I was able to book extremely short notice and I got tons of updates and pictures! I had a nervous baby, and they took her in without questions and within the first night I had pictures of my "nervous" kid playing, cuddling, and smiling like she was home!”
“Therio and family were great with my girl! They took her on walks updated pics with me and spoiled her! Even Apollo enjoyed her company. Thanks for keeping Olivia last minute.”
“Honey has stayed with Cory and Stacey before and has a great time with them. They send pictures that show that she is comfortable with them in their home. I don’t worry about her, I know she is well taken care of.”
“She was wonderful with Spike! It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was being so well cared for while we were away. Her 3-year-old absolutely loved him, which was one of the sweetest parts of the whole experience. Spike was a little shy about eating at first, so she actually hand-fed him his breakfast until he felt comfortable enough to eat. That told me everything I needed to know about how loved and cared for he was while we were gone. Spike came home happy and clearly very comfortable with his stay. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will absolutely be reaching out to her again the next time we need someone to keep him. Highly recommend!”
“I always know that Duke is well taken care of at Margie’s home. Margie is very accommodating. Duke enjoys safely playing with other dogs while at Margie’s! Margie makes having a dog so much easier for us.”
“My dog Jinx stayed with Stacey and her family for 8 days. She sent updates and pictures every day. He was well taken care of during his stay. I would recommend her as a sitter to others.”

“Harper had a wonderful time staying with Karen! She sent photos and kept me updated throughout Harper's stay, which gave me great peace of mind. Karen was always quick to respond to messages, and when our trip ended earlier than expected, she was incredibly flexible with our early pickup. I highly recommend Karen to anyone looking for a caring, reliable pet sitter. Your pets will be in great hands!”
“Aiko did a great job with Brock she was very patient and understanding with him even when he had an accident when he first arrived .I would definitely recommend Aiko and I hope to have her as a sitter again.”
“Jenny took amazing care of my cat while I was away. She kept me updated with regular photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was happy and well cared for.I would absolutely trust her to watch my cat again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
“Gina was so great with our dog Daisy! We have never used a dog sitter before and were very nervous, especially since Daisy has a lot of anxiety. Gina was so patient and easy to talk to and she send us pictures and updates daily! We will definitely use her again on our next vacation! 😁”
“100% recommended! I have three adult Shih Tzu dogs and I've never left them with anyone before, but I had an emergency trip and Nontombe was my support and salvation to take care of my babies. She took all the precautions I asked her to with them, and amazingly they adjusted to her quickly. Not only did she make me feel comfortable, but my babies also had a great time. I would definitely hire her services again! Nontombe is a lovely person, very kind and patient❤️”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Lexington
Bokyung is truly one of the most responsible and caring sitters I’ve ever met!🌷🌷❤️❤️ Dun Dun is a very high-energy puppy who needs a lot of interaction, playtime, and attention, and Bokyung did an amazing job meeting all of her needs.❤️ She was incredibly patient, attentive, and clearly experienced with dogs! Dun Dun was happy, well cared for, and clearly had a great time. I really appreciated the updates lovely photos and videos and how thoughtful Bokyung was throughout the stay. Her mini Aussie, Bean, is also absolutely adorable! very friendly and sweet and Dun Dun got along wonderfully with her. It was such a relief knowing Dun Dun was in such a loving and engaging environment. I would highly recommend Bokyung to anyone! We would absolutely love to book with her again!
Patricia is an excellent care taker! Buster was so happy being with her. She gave lots of great updates and little videos. The pictures she sent showed us that he was as comfortable at her house as he is at home. Buster is a little more needy with his care because he is a senior dog now. Patricia had no problem feeding him by hand to help him. I highly recommend using Patricia for your boarding needs.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Lexington on Rover is $33.3 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 367 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Lexington. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
95% of Lexington sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Lexington landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Lexington home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Lexington.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Lexington sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in SC ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
